Abstract
Abstract 4-Bromo-4′-vinyl biphenyl, a reactive functional monomer was synthesized in satisfactory yield through a convenient procedure. This monomer readily polymerized offering a powdery polymer which is soluble in a number of organic solvents. The molecular and spectroscopic properties of the polymer were investigated. Preliminary experiments with respect to the reactivity of the bromophenyl residues suggest that they are highly accessible to chemical reagents.
